Marcus Banks was playing very well season before last in Minny...I still think hes going to be a solid PG...not in Phoenix though with Nash and Barbosa..haha.
Im still on this Durant watch; Nothing surprising really, I tried to watch the game on nba.com but it kept switching between games. Aside from that 18 points, 4-19 FT, 8-8 FT, 4 fouls. One thing I knew would be a problem was that Kevin Durant thinks hes bigger than everyone and he gets too cocky in the post, and takes stupid jumpshots.
I watched the T'wolves and the Hornets, I was really impressed by Brewer and Smith. They showed pretty good team work, Brewer ran a guy off of a pick a couple of times and then went all the way to the basket for layups. Craig Smith was a beast down low, he really showed up, and pretty much overwhelmed the Hornets low post. These two will be good in the future. Brewer was good on the drive, even showed the ability to lay the ball up with both hands, which is always nice.Foye and Mccants on the other hand, didn't show me much of anything. They missed most of their shots they took, took bad shots, and neither one worked well in running the offense. They pretty much stunk it up out there in their game. Mccants looked out of control at times, pushing the ball when he shouldn't, and looking like he didn't have control of the ball dribbling at times. One thing he did show though, was a very good pump and under move at the free throw line off the dribble, much like Allen Iverson can do on the dribble. Unfortunately he can't make it like Iverson does
